Instructions
Soak Chicken Livers in milk for 30 minutes, then drain and pat dry.
Melt 3 tablespoons of Butter in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté Aromatics and Thyme until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
Add Chicken Livers to the skillet and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Do not overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary.
Pour in Port Wine and cook for 1 minute, allowing the alcohol to evaporate.
Remove Thyme sprig. Transfer the mixture to a food processor. Add remaining Butter, Heavy Cream, and Seasoning. Process until very smooth and creamy.
Taste and adjust Seasoning as needed. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve for an extra smooth texture. Transfer to a ramekin or serving dish. Chill for at least 2 hours before serving.
